New Year’s Resolutions, January 2009

by Matthew Smith · January 30th, 2009 · 7 Comments

Normal People do their resolutions before the beginning of the new year. I do mine much later. Without further ado:

I, Matthew A. Smith, in the nineth tenth year of the second third millenium*, hereby resolve to:

  1. Travel to at least 50 places I’ve never been before
  2. Get in the best shape of my life
  3. Look for adventure in the mundane
  4. Drink less alcohol
  5. Eat better
  6. Save $15,000
  7. Redesign my website, and actually roll out a complete site on time
  8. Create more videos
  9. Take more pictures
  10. Post content regularly, and of greater variety (see also, number 7)

Now, let’s see if I can pull this off… What about you?

*2000 would be the first year of the third millenium, correct… I originally had 1008?

    originally had 1008? First millennium would be 0-999 AD, second
    1000-1999 AD, third 2000-2999 AD. ;)
